The Assouline Chic Cats Coffee Table Book makes the case that cats have quietly shaped visual culture for a century — as symbols, as muses, and as reliable scene-stealers. Work by David Hockney, Andy Warhol, and Richard Avedon sits alongside imagery drawn from fashion, film, and design, with an introduction by three-time James Beard Award winner Brett Martin on why the appeal has never worn off.
Conceived as a companion to Assouline's Chic Dogs, it's bound in silk hardcover with a cover that leans into the joke without losing the elegance. 252 pages and more than 150 illustrations make it a genuine gift book for cat people, design collectors, and anyone who appreciates a well-made object.
